CAUTION:<br />

(Continued)<br />

Secure rear-facing child restraints in a rear<br />

seat, even if the airbag is off. If you secure a<br />

forward-facing child restraint in the right front seat,<br />

always move the front passenger seat as far back<br />

as it will go. It is better to secure the child restraint<br />

in a rear seat.<br />

{ CAUTION:<br />

If the airbag readiness light ever comes on and<br />

stays on, it means that something may be wrong<br />

with the airbag system. For example, the right<br />

front passenger airbag could inflate even though<br />

the airbag on-off switch is turned off.<br />

To help avoid injury to yourself or others, have the<br />

vehicle serviced right away. See Airbag Readiness<br />

Light on page 3-27 for more information, including<br />

important safety information.<br />

If the vehicle does not have a rear seat that will<br />

accommodate a rear-facing child restraint, a rear-facing<br />

child restraint should not be installed in the vehicle,<br />

even if the airbag is off.<br />

If the child restraint has the LATCH system, see Lower<br />

Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) on page 1-41<br />

for how and where to install the child restraint using<br />

LATCH. If a child restraint is secured using a safety belt<br />

and it uses a top tether, see Lower Anchors and Tethers<br />

for Children (LATCH) on page 1-41 for top tether anchor<br />

locations.<br />

Do not secure a child seat in a position without a top<br />

tether anchor if a national or local law requires that<br />

the top tether be anchored, or if the instructions<br />

that come with the child restraint say that the top strap<br />

must be anchored.<br />

In <strong>Canada</strong>, the law requires that forward-facing child<br />

restraints have a top tether, and that the tether be<br />

attached.<br />
